Midfielder Amaury Bischoff, released by Arsenal this summer, is being linked with the Bhoys.

Manager Tony Mowbray is thought to see the 22-year-old as a signing without any downside given his free agent status.

Arsenal snapped up the player from Werder Bremen but he failed to break through into the Gunners' first-team and he was one of eight players released at the end of last season.
